DESIGN COMMENTS:
50m Wavepiercer
Big sister to the 26m Wave Piercer Ultimate Lady, this striking design
utilises the most efficient catamaran hull form ever tested at the Australian
Maritime College’s test tank facility. Coupled with an 11500kW power plant,
the hydrodynamic hulls allow a sprint capability of 40 knots yet permit
a cruising range of over 3600 nautical miles. Constructed in aluminium
alloy or composite materials, the yacht displaces approximately 550 tonnes.
A digitally controlled active ride control systems coupled to the additional
buoyancy of the elegantly sweeping centre hull promises a magic carpet
ride well proven in large vessels of this form.
With a beam approaching 20m, the 50m Wave Piercer boasts accommodation
levels comparable to an 80m monohull, featuring interior layouts and designs
specifically tailored to the preferences of the owner. The clearly stated
intention of the Craig Loomes Design team is to provide a full interactive
service to the owner of each vessel, the resulting yacht must be the culmination
of a dream. Marrying elegant and timeless good looks with modern technology,
the 50m Wave Piercer is a truly stunning motor yacht.
